Just then, Matthew fell to the ground and began screaming in anguish. “Argh!”
“Master, Master!” Skyler had paled in fear as she continued shouting for Matthew.
Matthew's suffering only confirmed Archer's theory that Jared had intentionally harmed Luminous Sect's leader. Naturally, Archer's attacks toward Jared intensified.
Jared knitted his brows in concern at Matthew's condition, muttering, “Have I made a mistake?”
“If anything happens to my mentor, I won't allow you to leave this place alive!” threatened Archer.
He sent another punch flying Jared's way, but this time, Jared's patience had run dry.
Jared could not afford to waste more time dodging Archer's attacks and swiftly seized the man's fist.
He said coolly to Archer, “The evil energy in your mentor's body is strange. I need to move closer to check on him.”
“This is all your fault! How dare you approach our mentor!” The hot-headed Archer simply could not be reasoned with.
A second later, he was horrified to realize he could not retract his fist from Jared's iron grip.
Archer himself was a Martial Arts God. While he was nowhere near as powerful as Garthor, it was inconceivable that Jared, a mere Martial Arts Saint, could so easily overpower him and hold his fist hostage.
Before Archer could strike Jared with his free hand, Jared abruptly kicked him to the side.
Frankly, it was mortifying for a Martial Arts God to be played like a fiddle by Jared.
“I'm going to kill you!” bellowed Archer.
Fueled by humiliation and anger, Archer's martial energy exploded, and the room began to shake under the weight of its menacing aura.
Jared shot Archer a furious glare and warned, “Go ahead if you want your mentor to die sooner.”
Right on cue, Skyler wailed helplessly, “Archer! Master's not going to make it. Oh no!”
An anguished cry escaped Matthew, and black mist flew out of his gaping mouth.
The mist filled every inch of the room, clouding everyone's vision.
Jared shouted, “Bring your mentor away! Hurry!”
The appearance of the black mist struck Archer and Skyler dumb. Jared's shout snapped them out of their trance, and they quickly carried Matthew out of the room.
The black mist swirled around Jared and gradually morphed into a human-like form.
Jared said sneeringly, “That was a bold attempt to stir up trouble, considering you're a mere soul remnant.”
The form stared at Jared and burst into laughter. “I'm impressed. I didn't expect a lowly Martial Arts Saint to force me out of that person's body. Well, I may be a soul remnant now, but killing you is still child's play for me! It's as easy as crushing an insect.”
“An insect?” Jared scoffed and retorted, “But this 'insect' forced you out of Mr. Campbell's body. Doesn't that imply that you're even weaker than an insect?”
